Welcome to the first Carnival of Debt Reduction for 2007. A blog-carnival is a collection of posts, from various bloggers, about a specific topic. The topic for this carnival is debt reduction. The following posts were submitted for this week’s carnival. Click around, make comments, and consider the benefits of getting out of debt. If you are new to my particular site, the No Credit Needed Network, I want to welcome you. I also have a site called No Credit Needed which is my main “blog” and the No Credit Needed Podcast, where I talk about money, frugal living, life, and debt reduction. I hope you will take a sec and check these sites out. Last, if you have a personal finance goal of saving money or getting out of debt, you might want to consider joining us here at the No Credit Needed Network. Click the current charts tab a the top left-hand side of this page, and you can see the awesome progress our members are making. Now, on to the Carnival:

Those are the posts. There were a few that were border-line debt reduction posts, and I let them slide. There were 3 or 4 submissions that had absolutely nothing to do with debt reduction, so I did not include them. If you feel like your article should have been included, feel free to contact me and I’ll see what I can do. One more thing, just because and article is included here does NOT mean that I endorse it or agree with it. I am radically anti-debt and anti-credit… which means I’m way different than most pf bloggers. So, enjoy the posts, make comments, and keep rocking. Please check back throughout the day today and Wednesday for updates to our member charts here at the NCN Network. Thanks for stopping by.
